LOVELY GENEVA COUNTRYSIDE - THE ARVE

After having blogged about my trip to Zweisimmen for 6 weeks it is now time to take a tour around our beautiful Geneva countryside again. It is such a wonderful area that I never get tired of it...

Every Saturday we go out for walks or a bicycle ride around Veyrier and it's surroundings. We always do it with much pleasure. It is to be said that here, in Geneva, we are blessed with amazing landscapes made of soft green hills, sinuous rivers (Rhône, Arve, Allondon, Versoix, etc...), verdant vineyards, quaint and charming villages with old houses, fortified castles and enchanted forests with the mountains in the background (Jura, Salève, Voirons, Môle, Vuache, Alps/Mont Blanc, etc...). Ideal for romantic souls and photography addicts.

So, let me take you down to the Arve and theEtrembière pond(biotope) in France that are situated less than 10 minutes away from my house. I hope you'll like my pictures!

Rosa your pictures are stunning! I feel as if I were there with you -- love the use of color and textures. Hope you're having a great summer (you look like you def are!) and everything is fabulous :) Stay cool!
